In the summer in London when the weather is letting me down I have to think of new and clever ways to feel summerly without being cold.  One of the tricks I use (to fool myself into thinking its summer) is to wear lots of pale clothing.  Although an all white outfit can seem a bit much, adding a few little touches of pale pinks or tans can help to bring you out of the cheesy-romcom-gospel-choir look and into the city slicker summer one.

I love this bag, although it is really too small to get anything in, it belonged to my mother before me and is so worn and loved it feels special every time I wear it (even if I only get keys and a credit card inside!).  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend of glorious weather – but if not this is a great way to trick yourself into thinking you did!
